ALBUM INFORMATION:

Baroque music is perhaps one of the musical genres most prone to instrumental arrangement, variations and improvisation. Based on these three precepts, and using as a base some of the most popular melodies of the 17th and 18th centuries, Concerto 1700 builds an emotional journey through dances and songs of Ancient Spain, immersing the spectator in a baroque party where the intricate rhythms of the jácaras, the fandangos, the canarios or the folías alternate with the soft and noble harmonies of the españoletas or the pasacalles.
From a casual point of view, the points in common between baroque music and other more current music will be addressed in this unique jam session devoted to the most representative dances of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in Spain and that were treated by composers from all over the continent.
